- Crop production — rice, wheat, vegetables and fruit
- Seeds, seedling production and nurseries
- Fisheries and livestock rearing
- Forestry, storage and marketing of farm produce
- Practical: the prescribed work and notebook (25 marks)
This is a topic list — chapter order and numbering may differ in your edition. Download the definitive syllabus from the NCTB website (nctb.gov.bd).
How to score well in Agricultural Studies
- Memorise crops, varieties and seasons as a table.
- Record your own work and observations in the practical notebook.
- Remember fertiliser and pesticide dosages — numerical questions come from there.
A preparation routine that works
- Read the textbook chapter yourself first and get the core idea — starting with a guide book leaves the concept half-formed.
- After each chapter write a one-page note in your own words: definitions, formulas or key points, and an example.
- Solve that chapter’s creative and MCQ questions from past board papers, then check your answers.
- Reserve one day a week for revision only — skim every earlier chapter note.
- Sit at least one full timed model test a month, then work out exactly where you are losing marks.
